Vision, Voice, and Audience in La Chartreuse De Parme Lottie Katz
Vision, Voice, and Audience in La Chartreuse de Parme Lottie Katz Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2015 © 2015 Lottie Katz All rights reserved ABSTRACT Vision, Voice, and Audience in La Chartreuse de Parme Lottie Katz This dissertation presents a close reading of Stendhal’s La Chartreuse de Parme, analyzing its written style, its themes, and the relationships between its numerous characters and narrative lines. Through a rigorous investigation of these factors, Stendhal’s explicit creative project emerges: the author’s desire to present himself as a storyteller in conversation with his reader. As storyteller, Stendhal applies himself to show rather than tell. In his narrative method first person often replaces the third; the story unfolds before the reader’s eyes as it would on a stage. The clarity and sobriety of Stendhal’s language becomes a vehicle for the vivid expressivity and dynamic energy that give rise to the Chartreuse’s blatant theatrical presentation. This analysis unfolds in five chapters and an epilogue, illuminating the foundations of Stendhal’s theatrical style. I. Caricature: The Rogues’ Gallery: An inquiry into the passages that present Stendhal at his satiric best. II. Sentence Structure: The stylistic characteristics that underpin theatrical presentation. III. The Emphasis on Time: Stendhal’s manipulation of narrative time facilitates the forward movement of the action; it is theatrical in the sense that there is a continuous flow of movement. IV. Architectural Structure: Enables the disparate components of the narrative to fit together, though there are a multitude.

Collectors Checklist by Richard © 2001, Version 2.7
Dungeons&Dragons Collectors Checklist by Richard © 2001, version 2.7 Well met and welcome to the Collectors Checklist! I made this checklist for myself to keep track of what TSR products I own. Many times was I in the position to photocopy (“Xerox”) a module or booklet that the owner didn’t wish to sell. So gradually my collection expanded with not only genuine products but also with photocopies. Since the coming of the officially digitized classic products (PDF) it is even harder to keep track of what product you own in what format. With the Collectors Checklist you will be able to sort your whole Dungeons&Dragons collection, no matter what the format is! For those out there who haven’t got a clue, here’s how to use the Collectors Checklist: TSR-Code : The product’s publishing code Sub-Code : When a product belongs to a specific group of products it carries this code Title : The product’s title (dah!) Hardcopy : Check this if you have the original item Copy : Check this if you have a copy (Xeroxcopy for instance) of the original product PDF : Check this if you have a digital copy(.pdf/.doc/etc.) of the original product HINT: you can even write down the number when you own more than one copy of a product ; ) If you think any items are missing, please mail me at [email protected] . Feel free to copy/share/print this list. Please visit these websites for the best Dungeons&Dragons archives on the Internet : http://www.acaeum.com http://home.flash.net/~brenfrow/index.htm .

MORE PREVIEWS AT HTTPS://WWW.PATREON.COM/DESIGNERSANDDRAGONS Chapter 5: Greyhawk — Tournament Adventures (1978-1980) With a new AD&D rule system now in place, TSR was ready to start releasing adventures — except that’s not entirely true, as the majority of these adventures predated the completion of the trilogy of AD&D ruleBooks. And, TSR was ready to support Gary Gygax’s world of Greyhawk — except these adventures were mostly placed in Greyhawk retroactively. But, history is a funny thing, and these early tournament adventures are certainly recognized today as Both the first AD&D adventures and the first Greyhawk adventures.

Determine if either or both parties are surprised. A. Normally, a d6 is rolled for each party. A roll of 1 or 2 indicates surprise. 1 2 1. Some individuals, notably rangers, are surprised less often — 1 in 6 (16 /3%) less often, in the case of rangers. This benefit accrues to the entire party. 2 Tenser the Arch-Mage and Otis the Ranger are traveling through the Gnarley Forest when a band of really stupid orcs attacks them. Our heroes have only a 1 in 6 chance to be surprised. Had Tenser been alone, he would have had the standard 2 in 6 chance of surprise. 2 2. Some individuals, notably rangers, surprise others more often — 1 in 6 (16 /3%) more often, in the case of rangers. 3 This benefit, however, does not accrue to the entire party. After soundly thrashing the orcs, Tenser and Otis track them to their lair. They have only the standard 2 in 6 chance to surprise the orcs. Had Otis been by himself, he would have received his improved 3 in 6 chance to surprise them. 3. Where either side uses a die other than d6 to determine surprise, convert to percentages (e.g., 1 in 1 4 8 equals 12 /2%, 9 in 10 equals 90%, etc.). While Otis is investigating the orcs’ underground lair (alone), he spots a group of duergar. Normally, the duergar are only surprised on a 1 in 10 (10%).
